Our Philosophy

Our philosophy includes learning, building relationships and expressing creativity through play, compassion and critical thinking.

Following the children's interests, our compassionate teachers create programs to suit their interests and needs

We are composed of a multi-age group that allows children to move and construct according to their individual abilities

Children are immersed in the richness of Jewish culture, traditions and values

The arts allow children to express themselves, develop language skills and flourish in building friendships and building fine motor skills

Science, math and literacy are integrated into our programs in a hands-on, age appropriate way

Physical activity is an important part of each day
